A behind the scenes interview with Jillian Michaels as she films an ad for So Delicious Coconut Milk Beverage’s “Change Your Milk. Change Your Life,” campaign.

Michaels will be representing the vegan beverage, with the campaign to launch next year.

Michaels discovered the beverage while looking for non-dairy, milk alternatives in the grocery store and was impressed by the drink’s nutritional benefits, as well as the company’s ethics.

Originating in Thailand, the excellent non-dairy substitute is made from pressing ripe coconuts and adding nothing else–no preservatives or chemicals.
